Paroles et traduction Hailey - Benang Mas

Benang Mas

Bilak sungai iya enggaunuan
Mali perau ditepan
Mali ambu dua menalan
Saru aku dah bebagi
Bepegai ba dua jari
Saum pengerindu... nadai bepenti...
Capah, pechah belah dua
Baka nya semaya tua
Agi... nuan bedau deka ngelengka
Berupai telih di ati nuan
Serintak nyabak sesedan
Agi nuan milih aku, alai nuan nepan...
Besai, pengerindu nuan ke aku
Kati ku tau kempang ngayah sulu
Enda leju, mesi ai pengerindu
Laban nuan nemu, iya deka bebungau baru
Ku ganti kain burak nuan
Enggau tenun benang mas
Ngepan sutera
Ku ganti tinchin di jari nuan
Enggau intan permata
Repeat Ku ganti pirak di marik nuan
Enggau tekang gemala...

Golden Thread

If the river had not been widened
My boat would not have capsized
My two arms are adorned with bracelets
Because of the gifts you gave me
Carried on two fingers
Your longing... never ends...
Heavy, split in two
Maybe when we're old
Still... you don't want to let go
Like a thorn in your heart
Releasing sadness immediately
Still you chose me, but you denied me...
Great, your longing for me
How do I know you still love me?
Not far, even though your longing is far away
Because you found someone new
I will change your dark clothes
With woven gold thread
And silk
I will change the rings on your fingers
With diamonds and jewels
Repeat I will change the silver on your necklace
With fine gold...
